Working - Radio Shack 300 Channel Dual Trunking Scanner PRO 2053

Description: Selling this scanner I no longer use. It's a PRO-2053 scanner from Radioshack. See the video. I picked up some Chicago Police, (460.1750 Mhz) which is impressive as I am in my basement and 40 miles or so from Chicago. You can also hear some closer transmissions (15 or so miles away) that come in better. Being higher up (Second floor maybe) also improves reception. An outdoor antenna would also increase reception. But it works pretty good with just the normal antenna on the rear. This is a trunking scanner that also receives the older Analog type of transmissions. Manuals to program it are available on line. What you hear in the video are analog transmissions. My local city/county police and such are all encrypted digital signals and NO scanner picks those up. While this does seem to be working fine, since it is a piece of vintage electronics I can't make any guarantees. Also, because of parts swappers and those with their golden screwdrivers, I have to sell this as Parts or Repair. Included is the scanner, the power supply, and a telescopic antenna that plugs into the back. You can also use an external antenna if you have one. The unit is in excellent physical condition. No cracks in the case. No broken feet. No burned out backlights in the display. All the digits appear to work. Now, I can't believe I have to say this but I guess I do. I can NOT MAKE any guarantees as to which police or fire or whatever you may pick up where you live. Receptions depends on your terrain, distance to transmitter, type of transmission, transmitter power, frequency (VHF or UHF) of transmission, and many other variables that I have no way to know for your particular area. I say this because I sold an AM/FM radio here awhile ago and it received fine in the video in my ad. Yet the buyer in rural West Virginia got it and complained it didn't pick up well. Picked up well here near Chicago. I obviously could not make any guarantees for rural West freaking Virginia. Shipping will be by UPS or Fed-EX. It will be packaged well for safe arrival. Local pick up is fine and Free. It can be picked up in Grayslake IL or East Troy WI.
